Ah, Dillon Brooks... Oddball has missed you! Amin and Charlotte react to the Bulls' DeMar DeRozan and Rockets' Dillon Brooks being ejected after an on-court scuffle last night in the Rockets seventh straight win and the latest in the Timberwolves analyst who received supervised release after being arrested for allegedly stealing "strategic NBA information." Amin and Charlotte also say goodbye to the NBA G League Ignite program after the announcement that it will end after this season. Did the NIL rule really lead to its end? Plus, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla is just the kind of "oddball" we love over here at... well, you get it. Mazzulla wouldn't reveal who gave him the directive to stop weirdly trying to block opponents' shots during dead-ball situations but added, "I don't think it's a rule, but I'm sure it will be in the next 24-48 hours." Then, Amin and Charlotte decide what's more embarrassing and defeating for players in the NBA: being beaten with rude cockiness or getting killed with kindness?

Charlotte and Amin react to Joel Embiid's 50-point game against the Knicks last night as the 76ers earned their first win in the series. They also offer takes on post-game comments Lebron James and Anthony Davis after they fell to 3-0 in their series against the Denver Nuggets. Then they play Sweep Check, where they rank playoff series on the likelihood that either the Lakers, Suns, and Pelicans will be swept. 

Charlotte and Amin put on high-tech equipment to play Lie Detector, where they judge if Devin Booker, Joe Mazzulla, or Rudy Gobert were fibbing when speaking to the media this week. They also comment on the Frenchmen in this year's draft class and JJ Redick reportedly interviewing for head coach of the Charlotte Hornets.
